Lookin' good man, lookin' good I like the clean wiring, makes me happy for the future of the hobby
Nice work on the shrouds too! Definately not bad for a first attempt.

Just need to cut down the screws and fasteners, polish it up and install the electronics.

Hopefully done by tomorrow...
Wrapped the build today and I'm happy with the final result.
Cut down some screws to the proper length and then did the electronics "cram" which resulted in me having to un-cram it and fix a crossed wire issue that somehow happened in the sled. Reassembled everything, soldered it up and...
Has one issue with the soundboard repeating swings, need to reorient the board which I'll do later.
That's the thick walled TCSS blade btw - needs a layer of clear wrap to distribute the light better.
Next saber in a bit, now that I have all the tools - ended up purchasing a cut off tool and drill press from Harbor Freight, both work well for hobbyists.
Thanks to everyone - especially Do-Clo, FenderBender, Jedi-Loreen, Rhys and everyone else who helped out with my various questions. And to Jaygon-Jinn and his awesome video series which really got me started on building this in the first place.
Nice job!
Got a question? Start Here. Have you tried the Thread Index yet? Most questions can be answered there.
Love the shroud you did. It gives the whole thing a very nice clean look. Gratz
